Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 2. Sep 2021Thema von InteresseReisenFilmeWissenschaft
Hi! My name is Hiram and I'm an english teacher from Miami, FL, USA! I am an extrovert, so I love meeting people from all over the world and having fun conversations. I've been moving around teaching english in different regions of Spain and now France going on 8 years now. My passions include, music, cinema/series, literature, philosophy, comics, cartoons, comedy, culture and much much more! I can't wait to meet you and help you learn English!Ich als Lehrkraft
I have been teaching English as a foreign language for over seven years now, and have even worked as the director of academics at a summer camp for students from abroad. I have a Bachelor's degree in English with a focus on creative writing, a Master's degree in liberal studies, and I am TEFL certified, all from the University of Miami.Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I have a very laid back teaching style. I like my students to feel comfortable talking to me, like if you were just chatting with your American buddy from Miami in a cafe or hostel while traveling around the world. I've been living abroad in Spain for six years and many of my best friends are learning English, so teaching this way comes very natural to me. I like to get to know my students over casual conversation, and later on I will bring up some topics or questions for us to break out of our comfort zone and chat about interesting things that might come up in the real world on a day to day basis!Zeugnisse
